Design leadership is about clarity in vision, communication, and intent.
​
I create environments where designers can do their best work,
grounded in shared purpose and mutual respect.
Craft & Accountability
High standards and high care go hand in hand. I expect thoughtful craft and strong rationale, but I also model accountability and reflection when things don’t go as planned.
Trust & Transparency
I believe teams thrive when expectations and context are clear. I communicate openly about decisions, tradeoffs, and feedback so teams can move with confidence and autonomy.
Collaboration & Empathy
Great design happens in partnership. I invest in relationships across product, engineering, and research, and I make space for different perspectives to shape better outcomes.
Growth & Mentorship
Developing designers into future leaders is one of my favorite parts of the job. I focus on identifying strengths, aligning growth with business goals, and giving feedback that builds confidence and clarity.
Vision & Systems Thinking
Whether it’s a design system or an organizational one, I approach design as a system by aligning intent, consistency, and adaptability to create lasting impact.
Values
Integrity – following through on commitments
Clarity – simplifying complex decisions
Empathy – understanding both users and teammates
Curiosity – questioning the obvious to reveal opportunity
Inclusion – creating spaces where everyone feels valued
Collaboration – building trust across partners
Design leadership is less about being the loudest voice in the room, and more about amplifying the right ones.
